1.) When it comes to anti-aging skin care for the entire body, what are the top different ingredients that people should look for when shopping for products?
- Retinol
- Vitamin C
2.) How do each of those ingredients assist with anti-aging for the skin whether in a preventative form or a reparative one?
Retinol
Retinol is among the best antiaging ingredients that favor the skin. It is a retinoid containing vitamin A, which increases the skin’s cell turnover process. As a result, your skin cells shed faster. This counters acne, dark spots, and wrinkles. Research also suggests that retinol can enhance collagen production, making you look younger.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C contains antioxidants that attack free radicals that can increase the skin’s ageing process. It is also known to brighten dark spots after using it for a while. But I encourage buying vitamin C products with opaque packaging to restrict degradation.
3.) Do you have any product recommendations for each of those specific ingredients? ie certain sunscreens, retinol body creams, collagen-boosting creams, scrubs ect?
Of course, yes. For example;
- SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic, contains retinol and offers general radiance.
- Avene Retrinal 0.05 Cream, which has vitamin C for lightening and brightening your complexion.
